Vets have and continuing to do the hard and dangerous work in defending our country and our way of life. they have for many years, really centuries. They defend the right of dumbasses like yourself to speak up, among other things. I have so far been okay with letting you spout off, say stupid stuff, and be a dumb ass. However, either clean up your act, or expect to hear from me.
